The Don Files: Part I

Jun 12, 2007 17:00

Since I have not lived at St. Paul's since W06, since most people on my LJ friends list haven't lived there in two years, and since I'm going to be graduate in a few days, I thought that it'd be fun to take a trip down memory lane. (Plus, I want to document these stories before I forget them.) These are the never-told-before stories of the ( Read more... )

donning, special entry, fun

Forbidden Love - What did Charlie have to do with anything? I hope it was so scandalous that he was bashful despite not being involved!

Sorry about that. Entry corrected.

I know some of these stories, despite being off-stream from you!

Oh man, that's my favourite way to get back at partiers. Early morning door knockings.

Alright, here's a contribution from me. This took place 2 terms before you moved into SPUC. I was moving to Ottawa for co-op and needed to stash some stuff in Dungeon storage but the powers-that-were didn't seem too enthused about letting me do this. The night after my last exam, I realized I still had a couple of things that needed to go in there and it was too late for me to find a ReLiC. So canoe_drew and I stared at the locked door of Dungeon for a few seconds, realized that there was a metal plate screwed onto it near the bottom and an evil glint entered our eyes.

We unscrewed the plate to expose a slot in the door just barely large enough for a human head to fit through. I stuck mine through the slot, squeezed the rest of my body after it and found myself inside Dungeon storage. I tried the doorknob and it unlocked, allowing Drew to help me move stuff in.

When we were done, we simply screwed the plate back and nobody ever found out. Until now :)

That's hilarious! I'm going to be at St. Paul's this weekend, and I'm going to check to see if that security hole is still there. :)

Thanks for the contributions! There's a ton of these random stories out there, I know.

"Irish" chocolate milk quikchange June 13 2007, 04:06:44 UTC

That was so much fun I decided to do another one. Back in 1999 when I was a frosh, my experience with alcohol had been hitherto limited to wine and beer. But shade_42 was eager to introduce me to more interesting varieties and I was, as always, happy to experiment. One night he mixed me a "brown cow" that was very heavy on the kahlua. As was our custom on Dungeon at the time, we were all sitting on the floor chatting. Suddenly the don came by making her rounds. It was at that moment that, even in my inebriated state, I realized that I would in danger of being carded for drinking alcohol in the hallway.

To my great relief, the don saw me drinking a glass full of brownish liquid and remarked, "you just can't get enough chocolate milk, can you?" with a smile before walking past me. Saved by my reputation :)
